He said Esport tho, mate... and Fnatic was popular before LoL even existed. They also won Season 1 Worlds so they were around aswell... So if you take the whole of Esports into consideration, Fnatic was/is way more popular than M5/Gambit

What Fer said: Hey @Liquid_s1mple, all the things u say on internet, u got to talk face to face. In Brazil things does'nt works like this. Cya lan. (can't find the tweetincommentsbot, but some guy copied the tweet)
And no, with this he didnt imply "beating him at Lan in the game".

No, he said something like "Gonna do it like we do it in the favellas" and implied physical violence. Ofc we all know that he would never do it, but he at least said it. So it's not like he's the most level-headed guy.

Edit:
Of course they deleted their tweets, so my source is gotta be the tweetsincommentsbot.

I feel like enchating should be a bit OP though. I was really looking forward to crafting my own strong armor/weapons but the self-enchanted stuff is just weaker than everything you find around the next corner. I mean if you hve crafting and enchanting on max level you should, in my opinion, be at least able to match the items found (excluding sets and legendary items of course).

The last time they played Fnatic was in the finals of Katowice 2016, where Fnatic won 3:0... Doesnt stand against your point ofc, just wanted to point out that we never got to see prime (old) Fnatic vs prime SK

You can make it higher on pure mechanics tho... I'm Plat 1 and honestly what I lack the most is probably decision-making and map awareness (and I tend to tilt, but that's a different story :D)... dunno what part of decision-making you talk about specifically, but learning the limits of your champion is one of the most important things imo and it's also something that you can practice better than when someone says "practice your decision-making"...
